References and ooPerl. The only books teaching the basics don't
(IMHO) do a very good job. But once a beginner starts to understand
how to use them properly, it represents a huge step forward in their
abilities.
There are much better ways to teach both than the likes of "Learning
Perl Objects, References and Modules" - and I'm even willing to chip
in with one of my lectures on the very subject!
